New Album Reviews Nothing Is Still: New Album Reviews Music | Bittles’ Magazine: The music column from the end of the world Sometimes, when life is getting you down, there is nothing better than losing yourself in a great album for a while. Sure, we should be engaged with life and fight back against whatever is bothering us, but every so often it’s necessary to hide away from the horrors of the world. In this week’s column I will be presenting some great new albums which are perfect for getting you through the day. By JOHN BITTLES We have the cinematic soundscapes of Leon Vynehall and Airchina, the electro squelch of Morphology, the indie rock experimentation of Girls Names, and lots more. So, remember that reality is but a product, and let us begin… This week we’ll start with an album which has kept me company during many a lonely hour. A deeply engrossing journey filled with a clear sense of wonder, Nothing Is Still by Leon Vynehall is the type of record which reminds you why you fell in love with music all those years ago. Out now on the legendary Ninja Tune label, Nothing Is Still was inspired by the story of Leon’s grandparents‘ emigration from Britain to New York in the 1960s. Vivid and absorbing, the results are brimming with both emotion and soul. From The Sea/It Looms (Chapters I & II) opens proceedings with evocative strings merging with an orchestral swell on a song which gently tugs at your heartstrings. Movements (Chapter III) meanwhile oozes a detached sense of melancholic cool, its loose jazz strut recalling the glory days of Mo’Wax or Acid Jazz. Other highlights include the glitch hop ambiance of Drinking It In Again (Chapter IV) and the Cinematic Orchestra style grandeur of Envelopes (Chapter VI). Accompanied by short films and a novella, Nothing Is Still might just be one of the best albums you will hear all year. 9.5/10. To say that UK label Firescope Records are on a bit of a roll right now is such Nothing Is Still: New Album Reviews an understatement it’s a bit like saying that the Conservative party are making a bit of a hash of this Brexit malarkey. After a fantastic long-player of melancholy electro and vintage sounding IDM from label head Steven Rutter, the imprint keeps standards sky high with Traveller, Morpholgy’s stunning new LP. With previous releases on forward thinking labels such as Central Processing Unit and Cultivated Electronics the Finnish duo have been on most clued up people’s radar for a while. Opener Distant Signal is a bittersweet piece of electronica with a soft bass pulse and redolent synths. Second Light meanwhile is classic sounding electro, a low-end throb merging with beeps and bleeps to create a song which thrills to the core. Further in, Hidden Variable sounds both mournful and ominous, Detached adds a welcome dose of erratic 303s to the fray, Pod Boy 8 will have you jackin‘ for days, while closer Dueteros is pretty damn divine. Please consider Traveller absolutely essential for anyone with a passion for emotion rich electro. 9/10. Belfast band Girls Names‘ reputation has steadily grown over these last few years, with a string of superb albums and live shows winning them an ever growing legion of fans. This summer the group make a welcome return to our stereos with the post-punk urgings of Stains On Silence. After a short break, Cathal Cully and co’s new LP finds them sounding both revitalised and refreshed. The loose dub strut of 25 gets things off to a stunning start, as mournful synths merge with a slow guitar riff which gets hearts racing even before Cathal’s treated vocals enter the fray. Next, Haus Proud emerges from its predecessor’s shadow with disco claps, eerie electronics and a New Order style beat. With out of key vocals and a fab bassline it both unsettles and excites. From here the slow build majesty of The Process is the sound of Public Image Ltd on crack, Fragments Of A Portrait is a slow, sinister ode to the night, while the title track may just be the best thing the band have ever done. Tired of the identikit posturing which characterises the majority of rock music in 2018? Stains On Silence is the album for you. 8.5/10. Since its launch back in 2012, Berlin label Maeve has been responsible for unleashing a series of fantastic house heavy 12s by the likes of Ripperton, Baikal, Mano Le Tough, Ed Nothing Is Still: New Album Reviews Davenport and more. Now they present Heavy Rotations Vol. 1, an eleven track showcase full of electronic funk and soul. Covering the full gamut of house and techno the album is available as a digital download, or as a wonderfully packaged triple LP. The lush melodies and light ambient house of PT4 by Mattheis make for a wonderful opener, winning any reticent listener over with ease. Next, Glass Channel by Aera is a shiver inducing slice of dub techno with just a hint of jazz, while Isolée’s No Let is a fresh sounding piece of leftfield house. Also be sure to check the techno head trip of Come For You by Dokumm, the cosmic disco swoon of The Drifter’s Three Words Max, and the melancholy melodies of Kev Sheridan’s Samhain. Every tracks a winner though, making Heavy Rotations Vol. 1 a thoroughly satisfying aural treat. 9/10. It has been over a decade since Gui Boratto’s debut LP Chromophobia shot the Brazilian into the limelight. Since then he has toured the world, started his own record label and released a series of well received albums and EPs. This summer the producer returns to his spiritual home of Kompakt with the emo house strains of his new LP. Pentagram is available now and is full of hooks, catchy melodies and dance floor nous. Opener, The Walker is an 80s new wave inspired slice of euphoric house/trance. Reminiscent of vintage Chicane, it sets the listener up nicely for what’s to come. Further in, lead single Overload features Beautiful Life vocalist (and Gui Boratto’s wife) Luciana Villanova adding her voice to an atmospheric piece of club magic which never apologises for its pop core. Other picks include, the main room drama of Forgive Me, the alt-pop squelch of The Phoenix Feat. Nathan Berger, and the spine-tingling techno rush of Spur. While the music may be a little too polished for some, Pentagram is full of emotional crescendos and is an awful lot of fun. 8/10. Next up we have some lush ambiance in the form of Airchina’s dreamy and beguiling debut album. Airchina is the new solo moniker of the multi-talented Nikolai Szymanski, who is, perhaps, best known as the lead singer of Düsseldorf band Stabil Elite. Gorgeously tranquil sounding, hazy synths and glacial atmospherics abound on the functionally titled, but emotionally inspired LP1. Cars makes Nothing Is Still: New Album Reviews for an evocative opening number, its soft synth swells and meandering air capable of soothing even the most stressed of souls. Concorde retains its predecessor’s sense of calmness, its gently plucked guitar and innocent sounding electronica making it resemble a soft, summer breeze. Blackbox offers a welcome dose of discordance, before The Call and Clouds return us to the equanimity of before. Recalling the likes of The Orb, 2814 or Ryuichi Sakamoto, listening to LP1 on repeat is the perfect way to spend any lazy day. 8/10. As anyone who has heard the seductive house strains of their breakthrough single Rej will attest the duo Âme know their way around a melody or two. Since then the band made up of Frank Wiedermann and Kristian Beyer have become synonymous with a unique style of deep house which successfully merges emotion, techno and art. The aptly named Dream House finds the pair pushing the boundaries somewhat for a surprisingly eclectic ride full of peaks and troughs. Released on their own Innervisions label, the album finds the duo introduce vocals, industrial ambiance, Italo soundtrack inspired creepiness and more to their trademark subtle house grooves. The result is a mellow, rich, sometimes discordant LP which wins the listener over due to the high standards of musicianship to be found. And, while Dream House may not be the all-conquering album expected by some, there are still many moments of wonder to be found. 7.5/10. A special mention must also go to: Free For All by Sami Baha – Out now on Planet Mu, the London based producer’s debut album is full of trap style beats and lashings of bass, 8.5/10, The Pool by Jazzanova – Collaborations with Rachel Sermanni, Ben Westbeech, KPTN and more stand out on a vocal heavy LP of future soul, 8/10, Poema by L_cio – Engineered and produced by Gui Boratto, Poema contains eight tracks of emotion rich house grooves, 8/10, Ignis by Mike Vaino & Vigroux – Dense and complex, these six dark ambient pieces possess a strange type of sinister beauty, 8/10, Lageos by Actress X London Contemporary Orchestra – Darren Cunningham’s venture with the London Contemporary Orchestra has led to the creation of a haunting and beautiful album which sounds gorgeously surreal, 8/10, Nothing Is Still: New Album Reviews Constant Image by Flasher – Out now on the always reliable Domino imprint, the Washington DC based post- punk trio make a glorious racket which sounds great to these ears, 8/10, Silver Eye: Deluxe Edition by Goldfrapp – A must for collectors, or those who missed it first time round, last year’s Silver Eye album is lovingly repackaged with an extra disc of remixes, 8/10 and Modeselektion Vol.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Revue CMC Review (York University) Hédi A. Jaouad. “Limitless Undying Love”: The Ballad of John and Yoko and the Brownings. Manchester Center, Vermont: Shires Press, 2015. 132 pp. Hédi A. Jaouad is a distinguished scholar known for his expertise on Francophone North African (Maghrebi) literature. Professor of French and Francophone literature at Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, New York, he is the Editor of CELAAN, the leading North American journal focusing on North African literature and language. He is also interested in Victorian literature, with particular concentration on Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning, on whom he published a previous book, The Brownings’ Shadow at Yaddo (2014). However, his current book, “Limitless Undying Love”: The Ballad of John and Yoko and the Brownings, shows a whole other side to his scholarship, for it links the Brownings to those icons of contemporary popular culture, John Lennon and Yoko Ono. This is a concise, economical little study (132 pp.), but it manages, in brief compass, to be pluridisciplinary, building bridges between poetry, music, and painting. As he modestly proclaims, it shows “his passion for more than one liberal art” (7). The title, “Limitless Undying Love,” comes from a late John Lennon song, “Across the Universe.” Hédi Jaouad reminds us that the titular “Ballad” applies to both poetry and music. He compares what he has called 19th-century “Browningmania” to 20th-century “Beatlemania,” both of which spread to North America in what has been popularly described as a “British Invasion.” Lest the reader assume Jaouad is only tracing coincidental parallels, he makes it clear from the outset that John and Yoko actually saw themselves as reincarnations of the Brownings, and consciously exploited the similarities in their lives and careers.
